Vacation Haul!

Does anyone else have vacation hangover? No? Only me? ok.

In the last week of July, I went o my so long wanted vacation! Wohoo.

I went to a city called Portimão, in Portugal and stayed there for a week. Basically my routine there was waking up, eat breakfast at the local shopping, shop (of course), go home, have lunch, go to the beach, become a lobster (at least the first day), home, dinner, night walks, sleep. and repeat.

So I didn't buy as much as last year because I'm saving up for when I go study in Latvia (Erasmus+ program), but still I bought quite a few things that I wanted to share with you.

Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon Review

I heard about this book, I wanted to read it, but they haven't translated it yet to Portuguese, which is my language. I decided to wait a few months (it took 2 months) for this book to come out in pt. But I didn't like the translation of the title (yes, I'm weird), so I didn't buy right away.
I heard about the movie coming out, saw the trailer and then I was like... Nope, I have to buy this. And I did. And I'm glad.

You probably notice that I only reviewed 2 books in this blog (this one now and Looking for Alaska by John Green), and both are 5 stars, but I normally only buy books that I'm sure I will enjoy. If you find one that is only 1 or 2 stars then probably someone gave it to me as a present. I still appreciate it, doesn't mean I like it.

Anyway. Moving on to the real review.

Turning 20!!

This was the year I turned 20! Wth? How have I lived for 2 decades already?

I was born July 2nd, 1997 at 2:15AM (I feel sorry for my mom). Basically my mom's birthday is July 1st, and basically, she ate the cake and went to the hospital because I wanted to be born, so yeah, I feel sorry for her but at the same time I kind of wish it was on the same day as her.

Saturday Vibes

Lately, I haven't had much time for myself, so I decided this Saturday was going to be a "me day".

I woke up at 10AM, earlier than I used to, and decided to change my room a little bit. I ate my breakfast and then I started cleaning and changing stuff around.

I never heard any podcasts, it's not something I'm used to doing because they can be quite boring, and normally while I clean my room I put music on, this time, I decided to ear the first "episode" of 2 podcasts I heard about.

Back Again

Hello everyone!! I know I've been MIA but college, work, and life it's hard to combine.

I decided to try again to blog since I actually enjoyed this more than videos (I tried starting a youtube channel but I am really bad at making videos because my face won't cope with it), I want to dedicate more time to the blog even though I don't have many ideas of what I want to talk about and how am I gonna talk about those ideas but I'm trying.

I don't know what the next blog post is gonna be about but probably something about my birthday 10 days ago... We'll see.

I really hope you stick around with me, because I really want to meet new people with the same interests as me, since that's quite hard in real life.

I hope you're having a fantastic day!!

March TBR

I'm trying to get a reading habit, and my goal is to read at least 25 books this year, which I think it's going on well, so for this month I decided to put a goal of which books to read, so here we go.

February 2017 Wrap-Up

I've been making an effort to read more this year, and so far it's working. I've read 4 books this month, and for me, that's amazing trust me. So why not share with you the books I've read? 😛

Cheer Up!!

So... My grandmother passed away last week and I didn't know how to deal with the pain and make it all go away, I needed to cheer up and all but just couldn't, and recently I finally started to become a little bit happier, and some of the things that helped me going through that process are the ones that I'm going to mention next.

My Guilty Pleasures!

My Guilty Pleasures:

One Direction

Yeah, that's right, I like One Direction, I have since 2011 and even went to their concert in Portugal in 2015, unfortunately, I don't think they kept going as a band, Zayn left the band and created is own music, which I love !! Niall and Louis were next, AND I LOVED their songs, now I'm just waiting for Liam and Harry. But yes, I still love them although I'm almost 20, and I'm not ashamed of it!

Pinterest

I discovered Pinterest last year and I've been hooked since then, I'm usually looking for easy recipes, inspiration, fitness related posts, quotes, and drawings. Pinterest is always there on my phone waiting for me to click open so they can make me love this app even more... oops, it's working.

Pokemon Go

Yeah, I love pokemon Go, and you're probably thinking I'm just another one of those stupid idiots that leaves the house just to catch pokemon... well yeah, at the beginning of this app I did that, but now it's only when I really need to get out of the house, it has had a time when I was bored of it, but they changed it up a bit and now I think I'm loving it again. save me.

Series

You probably have this guilty pleasure too you know? I watch about 30 different series, I got lost several times, I can't remember which episode I was on TVD or Once Upon a Time, but I'm still going to find it, watch it and love every second of it. This is a guilty pleasure just because when I should be studying I'm thinking "Just one more episode".

Burlesque

In case you don't know, Burlesque it's a movie starring Christina Aguilera and Cher, I've watched it five times in just a month, and still haven't got bored of it.

What are your guilty pleasures? let me know. 😊
